People in the Peace Region will be getting back more money this year from the federal government’s carbon rebate for 2024-25.
Starting in April, a family of four will receive $450 quarterly – $1,800 in total – from the Canada Carbon Rebate, formerly known as the Climate Action Incentive Payment.
The federal government said it changed the name of the rebate to “clarify its function, and make its meaning and relationship to the carbon pricing system more intuitive for Canadians.”
That rebranding isn’t sitting well with the provincial government.
In a joint statement from Premier Danielle Smith and Environment Minister Rebecca Schulz, they say quote “No ‘rebrand’ will save the federal government from its dwindling poll numbers.”
